History WebVideo / Beluga

* PyrrhicVillainy: Dave manages to obtain Beluga's Youtube Checkmark and amasses tons of views to take over the world... [[spoiler:and attracts the attention of Snowie on his Youtube channel, who finds and presumably ''kills him'', or at the very least, hurts him badly.]]

* BadassBeard: SubvertedTrope with Pablo, whose strange beard style is frequently mocked by Beluga. Pablo still acts like a tough guy, nevertheless.

* DisguisedInDrag: The most effective ploy used by Beluga and Skittle is to simply change their names and avatars to feminine alter-egos, which is treated as a DangerousForbiddenTechnique as it immediately makes the mods accept their every demand... But tends to attract [[AllMenArePerverts unwanted attention]].

Taking place almost entirely within the Discord app, most Beluga videos feature no audible dialogue as the characters only communicate through onscreen text. The main ongoing series stars the naïve, cat-avatar'd titular protagonist navigating his way through Discord servers, finding innovative ways to irritate and undermine the moderators as he goes. HilarityEnsues. The series has accumulated a memorable cast of recurring characters based on stereotypical Discord users who [[ADayInTheLimelight occasionally take centre stage in their own sketches]]. [[Characters/Beluga Has a WIP character page.]]

* Lester: The morbidly obese server owner of Lester's Minivan who refuses to ban people for any reason.
* Ralph: An officious, egotistical admin.

* Pablo Jr.: Pablo's neurotic son who gets promoted to mod position through {{Nepotism}}.
* Hecker: A hacker with a meaner-looking cat avatar than Beluga who seems to have unlimited HollywoodHacking abilities.
* Skittle: Beluga's friend who [[DisguisedInDrag frequently disguises himself as a female alter-ego, Skittle-chan, to trick the mods into compliance.]]
* Becky: A stereotypical clueless Website/{{Facebook}} mom with a fondness for unfunny [[WesternAnimation/DespicableMe Minion]] memes who somehow stumbles onto Discord, but quickly turns out to be more than she seems...
* Sbeve: An argumentative Flat-Earther.
* [=RoboKiller=]: A sentient bot in Despacito Fortnite Club who puts Beluga through a very rigorous Captcha test.
* Beluwuga: Beluga's own alternate female persona, usually unleashed as a last resort against the mods.
* Vladimir: A Russian user with an avatar similar to Skittle's (just the hat is changed) with a NewJobAsThePlotDemands.
* Belu-mom: Beluga's mother who alternates between being a caring parent and downright psychotic.

* DisguisedInDrag: The most effective ploy used by Beluga and Skittle is to simply change their names and avatars to feminine alter-egos, which is treated as a HolyHandGrenade as it immediately makes the mods powerless.

'''[[https://www.youtube.com/c/Beluga1/featured Beluga]]''' is an American Website/YouTube channel primarily centred around Discord-themed video skits. It is the younger sister channel of '''Explore Lucid Dreaming''', ran by the same creator, which centres around [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin exploration of lucid dreaming states, as the name indicates]]. With its rapid growth in popularity, Beluga has seemingly become a MorePopularSpinOff to Explore Lucid Dreaming.

* AllMenArePerverts: {{Parodied}}. Pablo, Eugene and Lester will ''instantly'' become agreeable with anyone who sports an avatar of a young/cute anime girl, or puts "female" as their gender, no matter how abrupt or unconvinving this is.

* GrammarNazi: Both Howard and Sbeve are shown to be these in the "Internet Arguments" episode, declaring themselves the victor of an argument because Beluga made a single spelling error.

* HalloweenEpisode: "Halloween in 2021 Be Like..." focuses on Ralph giving out candy to passing trick-or-treaters. Soon however, his {{Jerkass}} behavior begins to kick in; he begins unfairly dropping Beluga down a chute for his bad costumes, and then kidnaps Skittle-chan when she drops by for candy. [[LaserGuidedKarma But when he tries]] [[BullyingADragon to antagonize Hecker...]]

* HollywoodHacking: Hecker is capable of impossible feats of hacking prowess, including the abilities to inflate a person's bank account into the billions and design a downloadable file that generates unlimited battery power to a person's phone.

* PyrrhicVictory: In the first ''Series/SquidGame'' based episode, Beluga wins the $37000000, but [[spoiler:had to kill Snowie in the final round, and it turns out that the money was in Belubucks... which has a conversion rate of one Belubuck to 0.000031 USD]].

* BrownNote: Discord Light Mode is depicted as an eye-destroying horror that Beter preaches about. Beluga can't even stand a minute of it. [[spoiler:The Yellow Mode is ''[[UpToEleven even worse]]'', being so bad that it causes Beter's laptop to ''combust''.]]

* PyrrhicVillainy: Dave manages to obtain Beluga's Youtube Checkmark and amasses tons of views to take over the world... [[spoiler:and attracts the attention of Snowie on his Youtube channel, who finds and presumably ''kills him in real life''.]]

* WrongGenreSavvy: Pablo attempts to mute Skittle using Discord commands after the latter disrespects him... ''while on the VideoGame/AmongUs chat''. Naturally, it doesn't work, and Beluga points out to him that "this isn't Discord".
